HR & Payroll, done properly

Practical HR and payroll support, without the overhead of a full-time hire.

Meridian HR & Payroll Services helps small businesses stay compliant, organised, and confident in how they manage their people — payroll, contracts, policies, and everyday HR advice.

Who We Are

A focused, personal consultancy for growing businesses

Meridian HR & Payroll Services was founded to give small and medium businesses access to the same standard of HR and payroll practice that larger companies rely on — without needing to hire a full HR department.

We work directly with owners and managers to get the essentials right: payroll that's accurate and on time, contracts and policies that actually protect the business, and clear, practical advice when staff issues come up.

Sunayé Ownhouse — Founder

Background spans people management, payroll, insurance and financial services administration, reconciliations, and client relations — including HR policy and staff documentation work for hospitality businesses. Meridian was built to bring that hands-on experience to businesses that need reliable HR support without the cost of an in-house team.
